Students chose storm topics (Blizzard, Flood, Hail, Hurricane, Lightning, Tornado). Use this link for the rubric. We’ve been doing some research in class. Students need to complete their posters and bring to them to class Friday.

Classes create a vocabulary list based on what we are studying. The list will close on Tuesday and the test will be Thursday. Students need to be able to define and use the terms.

If you want me to look over the final draft of your paper and offer suggestions, you need to email it to me before Thanksgiving break. Use Google Docs and then share it so I can edit. That way I can make suggestions directly in the document.
